On Government Finance According to several of the more respected financial journals of this country, we are not approaching a recession, we are already in one. This is the third business slump in the past eight years of “business-like** administration. If a recession is not too severe and too long, and if it only affected businesses, it would be bad enough, but not particularly fatal. But a recession of almost any dimensions has other repercussions. The budget of a fiscal year is based on what economic experts think will be obtained through taxation for that year. As the budgets are set up a year in advance, they are naturally taking a well thought out guess. When a recession strikes, the estimated amount of money does not come in, and unless a surplus is figured, the national debt goes up, and the value of the dollar goes down. In other words, recessions can be inflationary. This year’s budget originally had a surplus of 12 billion dollars, but that has already been revised downward to about one billion dollars. If this recession continues for any period of time, we will again have an addition to the national debt, and more inflation. V And speaking of the national debt, what is the business approach to financing any debt ? It is to finance it at the lowest rate of interest possible. Over the past years, subscriptions to low interest government bonds have consistently been over-subscribed. Thus, the government has had the opportunity to get some lowinterest money by the sale of the bonds, but the treasury department has not seen fit to issue enough of the bonds to fill the demand, and consequently has had to raise the money at a later date, and at a higher rate of interest. In another area of government finance, every business knows that a high rate of collection is necessary for proper business. It is also known that each tax enforcement agent brings in from ten to fifteen times his own salary a year. But since 1952, while adding about 20,000 to the department of agriculture, and still not coming up with any savings, the government has dropped 3,000 enforcement men from the department of internal revenue. As a result, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue has reported to congress that over 25 billion dollars annually are not reported by taxpayers. And it has also been reported that only about five per cent of returns filed are actually audited. It all adds up to the fact that the American people are losing money.

x "x i Delmas Bollenbacber As a farmer living on 120 acres and farming an additional 120, Delmas “M ik e” Bollenbacber, Democratic candidate for county commissioner, said today he and every other farmer in the county is dependent upon good roads for access to markets, schools and churches. The improvement of the county road program would be one of his main efforts in the office to which he aspires, he said. He realizes that the county is limited in the amount of money returned from the state, but the blacktop road program should be pushed to enable large population areas better rbutes to towns. The blacktop road program should be on a logical basis, he said, and all parts of the county should be equally favored. Bollenbacher is an Adams county native, and began farming for himself 23 years ago. He rented farm land until 1950 when he was able to buy his present farm in Jefferson township. Starting on rather poor land, he built up the soil to such an extent that he has been a county winner of the fiveacre corn club. One of his major farm activities recently has been the growing of tomatoes, of which this year he is raising 25 acres. To grow this crop successfully he has attended many tomato and crop improvement conferences at Purdue University. He is married to the former Lauretta Fichert. They have two daughters, one of whom is a graduate of Purdue University. She is Mrs. Ron Stucky, home economics teacher at Pleasant Mills high school. The other daughter, Karen Lea, is attending the seventh grade at the Jefferson township grade school. He is a member of the Evangelical and Reformed church, and a graduate of the Jefferson high school. Takes Collection For Frauhiger Fund A young lady by the name of Cynthia Gehrig decided last week that she should do something about the fund for the Harry Frauhiger family, so she went around her neighborhood, collected $26 and brought it to the Daily Democrat office and requested it be put into the fund. The $26, with other donations received in the past two days, brought the fund total to $974.80, just $24.20 short of SI,OOO. One other item that might be mentioned is that when little Miss Gehrig, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Gehrig of 1121 Master Drive, counted her collections, she found them to be short of a round figure. She went to her piggy bank and took out the necessary change to bring the total to an even $26. It is hoped that there are more people in the city and county who, like Miss Gehrig, feel the needs of the Frauhiger family and will continue to contribute to the fund and boost it past SI,OOO. Previously reported $918.80 Master Drive residents, collected by Cynthia Gehrigs26 Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Knodel — $5 A friend, Columbia City $1 Lawrence Gerber $5 A friend $5 A friend ... $2 Robert Helm $2 A Friend ... $1 Beulah Parrish ... $4 Jim Grant, Defiance, Ohio $5 Total $974.80 Efficient Stove Aluminum-foil pie pans, placed under the coils of an electric range, will reflect the heat upwards,. catch drippings from the cooking, and cost less than the usual foil inserts.
